Product history
What changed, and why it matters.
A curated record of shipped Pace outcomes. Roadmap work stays in GitHub Issues; this page
records what people can use today.
-
The background-runtime proposal was retired
- Pace kept the existing companion plan as the product authority instead of adding a second, overlapping runtime.
- Any future background-work expansion now starts from current shipped behavior and a fresh bounded change.
-
Always-On Companion Mode reached an opt-in milestone
- Pace gained local camera, taught-object, screen, Mac-context, and pre-speech wake sources with conservative retention rules.
- Silent cards and spoken interventions remain separate, default-off choices and re-check restraint before acting.
-
Codex became a first-class planner option
- Users can select Codex or Claude as an off-device planner under the same explicit consent, audit, and amber-indicator contract.
- The Models screen now explains planner memory cost and recommends the largest local vision model that fits.
-
Meeting notes became adaptive and source-grounded
- Bundled and user-defined meeting profiles can shape notes while the general profile preserves the earlier output.
- Action items link back to transcript quotes and timestamps so users can verify where each commitment came from.
